I use Evolution with KDE/Plasma. Hovering over a virtual desktop in the panel widget shows the title bars of windows in that desktop, which in Evo's case includes the number of unread mails in the currently selected folder. As Evo has no Plasma-specific code, I assume other DEs can do similar things. poc _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
